You can recover
Two months ago, I had to cancel an assignment because of Hurricane Ian. I was scheduled for a couple of meetings, but what we thought was excessive heavy rain, turned out to be much worse than we’d imagined. Ian was very deadly and destructive and left thousands of people without their homes, power, and personal […]

Canceling Regret
“You’ve changed,” Is a statement I often hear, especially from people who haven’t seen or spoken to me in a while. “Thank God for change,” is always my response, because I’ve come a long way from the person I used to be. Even though change can be good, not everyone is receptive to it, especially […]

Erasing Progress
For years, I’ve fought to get to the place in my life where I’m not easily impacted by others’ negative thoughts and opinions of me. For most of my childhood and early adulthood, I placed too much stock into how I was perceived by society instead of how I saw myself. When I was met […]

Incorporate that with negative thoughts, social media, and the news, and you have a recipe for disaster. I consume a lot of online news and social media […]

Taking Flight
How many of you have had some really great ideas and as you prepared for takeoff, you failed to launch? Imagine doing that hundreds of times and still getting nowhere. But imagine giving up and still getting nowhere. I’ve had a few plans that I thought would come to fruition only to see them delayed. […]

Use your lifeline
Who remembers when the hit TV show Who wants to be a millionaire was televised? I watched that show faithfully and even envisioned being a contestant; after all, who doesn’t want to be a millionaire. As they started out, the questions were relatively easy then quickly transitioned to “hard.” Not seeing a way out, the […]

You’ll ruin it
“New beginnings are often disguised as painful endings.” Lao Tzu This is a new day, a new month, and the beginning of new things God wants to do in your life. Don’t ruin it by hanging on to the old. If He’s asking you to depart, it’s because He’s about to give you a brand-new […]
